Our school is situated in an expanding area. St. Paul's Bay is a seashore village in which a lot of people are moving to live in. Because of this we have pupils with different nationalities integrated in our school. In all we have pupils from 20 different nationalities mostly from the United Kingdom.

We also have a small number of pupils with special needs who together with their learning support assistants, try to integrate with the rest of the pupils. Only a very few pupils come from a difficult background or who face certain social problems in their everyday life and the school tries to help them in every possible way. All this helps pupils to grow up accepting each other with all the similarities and differences that we all have.
